Project

Linguistic pragmatics

This research agenda topicalises the institutional management of superdiverse multilingualism in urban contexts in Belgium with an empirical focus on the pragmatics of categorisation processes. This over-arching topic will be examined in several concrete research projects which zoom in on one particular type of institution, interaction or context. Methodologically, linguistic ethnography will be combined with research methods for interactional and pragmatic analysis.
